Video as a Learning Tool
Video is one of the most powerful tools available to teachers today. Whether in Math, Social Studies, English, or Science classrooms, it opens doors to new ways of learning by combining storytelling, visuals, and sound. Video can bring novels to life, make complex scientific processes easier to understand, and give students opportunities to connect with content in engaging and meaningful ways. On our site, we will explore and demonstrate how video can be used effectively in both Secondary English and Secondary Science classrooms. Each section highlights classroom strategies, examples, benefits, and resources that show how video enhances student learning.Â

About Us:
Hi! My name's Megan and I'm a Secondary English teacher in West Vancouver. I am currently in my third year of teaching and have the opportunity to work with students in English Studies 8, 9, 11, and 12. Throughout these courses, I integrate video as a way to make literature and language more accessible and engaging for students. By blending traditional teaching with video-based learning, I find that students are more motivated to participate in discussions, more confident in analyzing complex ideas, and better able to connect what they are reading to real-world issues and perspectives.
Hello! My name is Nik and I teach Science in North Vancouver. I am grateful to teach and enjoy my hobbies in this beautiful environment. I've been using video-based learning since the beginning of my teaching career, but have a newfound appreciation for how effective it can be when used to its fullest potential.
